Gaining functional verbal casual English should be possible within a year (based on several foreign exchange students I've made friends with). Going off of her past English zatsu her priorities should be in no particular order: vocabulary expansion, pronunciation and enunciation, and refining her grammar and sentence structure. She won't be able to write us a five page literary analysis on War and Peace, but she should be able to bant with folks like Irys and Bae in at least 70% Eigo. At least she'll be able to talk about topics other than the weather and her favorite x's. Probably. Hopefully.
